Whilst still a decade away from having to decide whether to send herself a birthday card or not, Queen Elizabeth II’s 90th birthday celebrations are sure to be a highlight of 2016.

The day itself is April 21st but it will be celebrated officially in May with events to mark the occasion continuing into June too, further continuing the celebrations marking the Queen becoming our longest-reigning monarch after more than 63 years in 2015.
